[quote=Anonymous]I would get an evaluation. We discovered that our child was dyslexic at the end of K but it was described as a behavior issue because she was frequently off-task. The school was surprised because she had done well on the oral assessments that are common in kindergarten. She is a 2E kiddo who had a very large vocabulary and excellent comprehension, so that masked that she could not decode. Depending on the reading curriculum, the school may not actually be evaluating decoding versus sight words. And dyslexia is quite common (1 in 5). Repeating the same ineffective curriculum would have been a disaster for her. So I would start by asking more about when the behavior challenges happen, are there patterns to the time he is off task.[/quote]
